I'm really curious what a professional Speedrunner can do with a game like Skylanders I mean the entire series is built on moving toys onto a base to transfer them into the game so maybe since it's a unique gimmick it could be something worth Speedrunning

Probably just choosing a single Skylander that's fast and with good clear like, Drobot or something. Would be neat to see though

@@followeroftheprince I KNOW A LITTLE TOO MUCH ABOUT THIS!! I discovered a glitch with spyro in the original skylanders. Spyro’s charge is absolutely BUSTED. First of all, if you turn more, it extends the duration of the charge, im not exactly sure why or if that’s even what causes it but it seems to be it. ALSO, the big glitch here is that charging while flying gives you complete control over the direction of your charge, as opposed to the slow turning that spyro usually has. This is huge if you upgrade spyro’s charge damage he SHREDS enemies while also moving insanely fast.

Fast forward a few years later, I'm going to my Grandma's house and realize she had a Wii over there, so I brought Sonic over. I was much better at gaming by then, so I kinda just beat the game all the way up to Arthur in about 2 hours, and beat him after 20 minutes because I learned his attacks were just a pattern...
